Matrix Trilogy DVD (9 discs) news

Hope this is not a repost - I can't see this info in any recent posts! I found this information 'elsewhere' on the internet!

Whether you liked just the first one or the whole pack, The Matrix is undoubtedly one of the most ground breaking films that will be remembered and highlyr regarded for many years to come. Member Orangesoul noticed this information about the DVD release of the trilogy at Australian DVD store Ezydvd.com.au. The Set features 9 DVD's, the 3 movies, and the 'animatrix'. Special features include

Although no price has been announced, one might guess that it will be around the £60 level / $80, if not more. Although there is no announced release date yet either, speculation is towards a release in the fall of 2004 (pre-christmas).

This is my personal comment : Whooooohooooo! Although I thought the films got sequentially worse, The Matrix (1) is still one of my favourite films ever! I am looking forward to the extra unseen footage, and as I havent seen Revolutions on DVD yet, it will be great to watch all three movies back to back, especially with the extra hour in reloaded.

I always knew they would do something like this, and have to agree that Matrix 2 is way to long anyways. Not sure i could cope with a 3 hr 20 version of it. Im hoping that the first chapter has been redone in DTS though. This film would rock in DTS sound. . . Makes more sense to buy the Region 1 version as The Matric was slightly cut in the UK . hence the commentery by Carrie Anne Moss being lost across the atlantic

Well I think that Reloaded is the best one by far so I am well pleased about this although I hope it will also be available as a standalone purchase. Does anyone know if the extra footage is actually 'unseen' or if it is the footage filmed for the computer game?

I don't know about rules of submitting the same film but you are now allowed 2 different versions of a film on DVD, so if Warner's wanted to they could have the first film as an 18 certificate as part of a boxset and could still market the single edition cut version or they could resubmit the film for a 15certificate and hopefully it would be uncut, don't forget James Ferman and all his silly rules are why The Matrix was cut in the first place and he is no longer about and if Warner's pushed for this film it might be allowed uncut at a 15 cert it will certainly be uncut for an 18certificate but i can't see Warner's wanting the 18certificate.
